Nice has a number of rooftop bars and restaurants spread across hotels and standalone buildings. From these elevated points, you can see the Mediterranean, the old town, and the surrounding hills. Some are in the city center, others closer to the Promenade des Anglais or in neighborhoods like the port. Most open in the late afternoon and stay open into the night. They serve cocktails, wine, and often a selection of food, from light bites to full menus. The atmosphere varies depending on the place. Some rooftops are relaxed and focused on the view, others bring in DJs or live music. Farago on the Roof and Rooftop 360 at NH Hotel Nice are examples of spots that combine drinks with panoramic views. Ancora and Seen by Olivier Nice are among those that lean into food and ambiance. Le Plongeoir sits on a rock outcrop by the sea, outside the typical rooftop category but with similar exposure. La Terrasse at Le Méridien Nice and Calade Rooftop Restaurant at Radisson Blu are located in established hotels and attract both guests and locals. Many of these places are busiest in summer, when warm weather and long evenings draw people outside. Some stay open year round, others close in cooler months. Prices are generally higher than street level venues, but the view and setting justify this for many visitors. Reservations are often recommended, especially on weekends and during high season. The rooftops of Nice offer a way to experience the city from a different angle while taking in the coastal landscape.
